Category: Ankle, Arthroscopy Introduction/Purpose: Ankle sprains are common orthopaedic injuries. Although the initial treatment is conservative, some patients may develop chronic instability requiring surgical repair. Arthroscopy is often performed prior to ligament reconstruction to evaluate concomitant intraarticular and cartilage injuries. Arthroscopic treatment may be performed immediately prior to ligament repair (single stage), or it may be scheduled days/weeks prior to ligament repair (double stage). Concerns of single stage arthroscopic treatment are related to the increased difficulty in dealing with ligaments and soft-tissue injuries hindered by fluid extravasation. Our study compares outcomes between single and double stage arthroscopy in patients undergoing lateral ligament repair surgery. Methods: In this retrospective study we reviewed charts of patients with chronic lateral ankle instability who underwent ankle arthroscopy followed by lateral ligament repair from 2011 to through 2015. A total of 102 patients were included in the study, 65 patients in the single stage group, and 37 in the double stage group. Surgical failure was defined as recurrence of ankle instability at any point in the follow up period after the procedure. Demographic data and recurrence rate of instability were compared between the groups using chi-squared test. Results: Women comprised 72% (73/102) percent of the total patient population. No significant differences in demographic data were found between the two groups. There was no difference in the recurrence rate of lateral ankle instability between patients who underwent 1-stage versus 2-stage arthroscopic treatment. The rate was similar between the groups: 10.8% (7/65) of patients with the single stage technique and 8.1% (3/37) of patients in the double stage group (p=0.6208). Conclusion: In the treatment of chronic lateral ankle instability, the use of single-stage arthroscopy and lateral ligament repair showed similar rates of surgical failure when compared to the double-stage procedure. A single stage approach may be a more efficient use of time and hospital resources, and avoids the need to place the patient under anesthesia multiple times. Arthroscopy may be performed immediately prior to lateral ligament repair without concern for increased risk of recurrence of instability.

Abstract Background : The present study aimed to examine the efficacy and safety of concurrent arthroscopic treatment of osteochondral lesion of talus (OLT) and lateral ankle instability. It was hypothesized that the outcome of all arthroscopic surgery was no worse than that of the combined open and arthroscopic surgery for treating chronic lateral ankle instability accompanied by OLT. Methods : All the patients diagnosed of chronic lateral ankle instability accompanied by OLT who were surgically treated between May 2015 and May2017 were targeted for inclusion. A total of 32 patients received concurrent arthroscopic treatment of OLT and lateral ankle instability, and 35 patients received arthroscopic treatment of OLT and open lateral ankle stabilization. All these patients were followed up using Karlsson Ankle Functional Score, visual analog scale (VAS) scores, Tegner activity score, and American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society Score (AOFAS). The satisfaction and complication rate was evaluated and compared. Results : At 24-month follow-up, the Karlsson score, VAS score, Tegner score and AOFAS score were significantly improved in both groups in relation to the pre-operative condition. The two groups did not differ significantly from each other in terms of functional outcomes, satisfaction and complication rate. Conclusion : In comparison with the open lateral ankle stabilization and arthroscopic treatment of OLT, the all arthroscopic procedure showed no difference in clinical outcome at 24-month follow-up for treating chronic lateral ankle instability accompanied by OLT. With the benefits of minimal invasive arthroscopic procedure and an aggressive rehabilitation protocol, the treatment efficacy for the patients with chronic lateral ankle instability accompanied by OLT was still inferior to that for the patients with chronic ankle instability. Trial registration : The present study was carried out with the retrospectively registered data starting from May 28, 2015
